Sciatica Pain

Sciatica Pain

Ever experienced pain, numbness, tingling or weakness that starts from the lower back to back part of your pelvis, legs and reaching the feet? You might be experiencing what we call the “Sciatica Pain”.

Sciatica Pain is described as the pain arising from the compression or irritation of the Sciatic Nerve, the longest nerve in human body which runs from the back part of our pelvis to our legs reaching our feet. Any irritation or slightest compression of this nerve can easily cause sciatic pain (aka Sciatica).

Mr Lee

This condition if left untreated will eventually limit your daily activities as well as affecting your quality of life.

This is Mr. Lee who came in our clinic limping. He complained of pain and numbness sensation that radiates from lower back to his right-side buttock through the back of the right thigh, leg and feet.

Sciatica affects many people. In fact, as many as 40% of people will get it during their lifetime, and it becomes more frequent as you age. The main culprit of Sciatica is caused by a herniated disc with nerve root compressions. Sciatica pain in Malaysia is common and around 5-10% of patients with low back pain have sciatica. Intervertebral disc weakens over time or a vertebra can slip forward and the nerve fibres become compressed. All these can happen due to an injury or trauma but it is often the results of years of bending and sitting.
